Jeannette Skinner, the CEO of Wuesthoff Medical Center-Melbourne, has left her position, the provider confirmed Wednesday. She held the job at the 115-bed hospital for 14 months.

Wuesthoff spokeswoman Selina Staub said via email that Skinner's departure was part of a restructuring aimed at reducing costs. She also cited Wuesthoff's recent partnership with Florida Blue on an accountable-care agreement for thousands of patients in Brevard County, which the two companies said would improve coordination of care and reduce costs by eliminating redundancy.
